Directions: |
Directions:Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Season the chicken inside and out with salt and cayenne pepper. Peel half the garlic cloves. Put the unpeeled garlic cloves and the parsley sprigs inside the bird. Place the chicken in a casserole, arrange the red pepper, carrot and the peeled garlic cloves around the bird and then pour in the stock. Bake for about 1 ½ hours or until the juices run clear. While chicken bakes reduce the vinegar over high heat to 4 tablespoons. Remove the chicken from the dish. Pour the pan juices and vegetables into a food processor and puree until smooth. Return the sauce to the casserole over a burner (medium heat) and allow to thicken while mixing in the tomato paste and reduced vinegar. Sauce can be served on the side or poured over the chicken. I always serve the chicken with mashed potatoes or egg noodles to ladle sauce over. |
